POPLISTFUNC

This callback is supplied to the SccPopulateList Function by the IDE and is used by the source control plug-in to update a list of files or directories (also supplied to the SccPopulateList function).

When a user chooses the Get command in the IDE, the IDE displays a list box of all files that the user can get. Unfortunately, the IDE does not know the exact list of all the files that the user might get; only the plug-in has this list. If other users have added files to the source code control project, these files should appear in the list, but the IDE does not know about them. The IDE builds a list of the files that it thinks the user can get. Before it displays this list to the user, it calls the SccPopulateList Function, giving the source control plug-in a chance to add and delete files from the list.

Signature

The source control plug-in modifies the list by calling an IDE-implemented function with the following prototype:

typedef BOOL (*POPLISTFUNC) (
   LPVOID pvCallerData,
   BOOL fAddRemove,
   LONG nStatus,
   LPSTR lpFileName
);

Parameters

• pvCallerData
  The pvCallerData parameter passed by the caller (the IDE) to the SccPopulateList Function. The source control plug-in should assume nothing about the contents of this parameter.

• fAddRemove
  If TRUE, lpFileName is a file that should be added to the file list. If FALSE, lpFileName is a file that should be deleted from the file list.

• nStatus
  Status of lpFileName (a combination of the SCC_STATUS bits; see File Status Code Enumerator for details).

• lpFileName
  Full directory path of the file name to add or delete from the list.

Return Value

Remarks

For each file that the source control plug-in wants to add to or delete from the file list, it calls this function, passing in the lpFileName. The fAddRemove flag indicates a new file to add to the list or an old file to delete. The nStatus parameter gives the status of the file. When the SCC plug-in has finished adding and deleting files, it returns from the SccPopulateList Function call.
